MASTER WORKMAN MRS. RODGERS.
The Only Female knight of Labor who
Sits in the Front Row Among the
Leaders.

Women have the same rights in the
Knights of Labor organization as men,
and are better members, so far as stick.
ing by the order and supporting it with
their money go. 1t has been remarked
that they have little to say concerning
the government, and take little interest
in the discussions that arise. A member
of one of the District Assemblies, com.
menting upon this fact, said that some
effort should be made to get the women
interested. He suggested that some par
ticularly earnest women ought to bring
around their knitting and crochet work.
Then. as the men talked, the women
would be led to talk too. But not one
woman had the nerve to bring her knit
ting around, and the women still sit and
listen.
In all the Knights of Labor organiza-
tions there is but one woman who has
shown herself capable of sitting in the
front row right among the leaders, and
that is Mrs. Elizabeth Rodgers, the wife
of George Rodgers. She is Master Work

Artesian Wells in Algeria.

At a recent meeting of the Paris
Academy of Sciences paper was read
on various phenomena presented by
the artesian wells recently sunk in Al
geria by NJ. de Lesseps. The results
are described of unusually successful
operations undertaken in 1885. and
last year in the region of the Shots,
where one well. yielding as much as
5000 litres per minute of pure water
ut temperature of % deg. c., has
already developed considerable lake
ten metres deep, by means of which
from 500 to GOO hectares of waste land
have been reclaimed. Similar results
elsewhere give hope that large tracts
now uninhabited, but which supported
a numerous population in the time o.
the Romans. will soon be again brought
under cultivation M Y. Poet.

A COOPERATIVE SCHEME.
How Three Young Ladies' OF Slender
Purses Procured Stunning Outfit.

How Three Young Ladies' OF Slender
Purses Procured Stunning Outfit.
We have Just heard, says an exchange,
story of three very ingenious young ladies
that is out Of the ordinary. These young
ladies are all about the same age and size,
and, by singular coincidence, were all to
be married about the same time. They were
all ambitious to have swell weddings and
stunning outfits, but their purses were not
long enough for both, and to possess the
latter even was financial puzzle which gave
them many sleepless night. Finally they
plan. To avoid any unpleasant gossip
among their mutual friends and inevitable
companions, which is always odious, they
decided to give up the big wedding, but they
would have the bangup outfit by pooling
their moneys. No. /, who was to be mar
ried first, was to make a bargain with the
dressmaker to make any alterations desired
In the trousseau after the wedding was
over, and the three were to 60 together to
select 1t, which they did, and the dress was
made up In the very pink Of fashion, with
point lace enough to exhaust the stock Of n
Worth, and bride No. was married. The
ceremony over, the trousseau was turned
over to No. 2, and she took II to the dress
maker for alteration according to contract,
and In II she was married, after which the
second reftting was done, and again the
brilliant outfit stood before the marriage
altar, and third bride was the envy Of a
few guests present because Of the gorgeous
bridal decorations. How was the dress paid
forY No. paid half the bill because she
had the frat wear. Nos. and 8 shared the
other half. No. 8 was willing to share as
much as No. 2 because, though she did not
have the privilege OF the second wear, she,
by mutual consent, kept the dress.

was strolling with him and the dog through
West Roxbury Park, 'and tell him to take
It home directly and he will Immediately
obey" just then gust of wind lifted the
speakers hat and sent 1t spinning across
the grass.
"Take that home, Cesar" shouted the
friend In spirit OF mischief. Sure enough,
the dog seized the ssft felt hat and started
Contrary orders, mingled with profanity
were of no avail, and the unhappy owner

head. The hat was found In the back yard, /,

late he is greatly improved and is able to
take short walks. On Monday the woman

her how It happened, and she replied that
her husband had demanded money of her,

her.
"'But that wasn't ALL said she, for

THE NEWEST TENNIS FREAK.
A Jot or Two for Young Ladies Who
Know How to Use the Racket.
TNnv york Mail and Exnreaa


The newest tennis freak is for number
of girls who are in the habit Of playing in
the same party or who expect to spend any
part of the summer at the same hotel or
mountain house to have their gowns made
in the same style and In harmonious though
different colors. or half dozen aspirants
to the honors of the racket, one gets her.
self up in seafoam green, for instance, and
the second in pale pink. Numbers three
and four make themselves charming In blue
and old rose; and five and six are attired In
lavender and golden brown. Sateen and
the cotton fabrics are the foundation Of
these outdoor dresses en- suite, and the ef-
feet is piquant and picturesque as 1t Is
meant to be, though the modern touches
of the outfit with the competition In cut and
fit decidedly weaken the advantages OF the
game. For tennis hats everything is In
order this summer from Tam O'Shanter
to sailor hat or rough straw fiat heaped
with wild flowers and turned up behind.
The latest addition to the tricycling out
fit is what appears to be a simple Killed
skirt, but which is really copy Of the En-
glish divided skirt laid In kills overlapping
one another. The garment has never been
used In America until this summer, but 1t
is the easiest OF any costume yet tried for
wheeling purposes. Some women wear
Qrdpeu sHlrtb over IL, DuJ IIlhJ lb nOU HeceS-
sary. As rule wheelwomen take to very
scant skirts cut after the manner Of the
narrow cloth gowns rof twenty years ago.
These do not blow up vexatiously, but are
not adapted to active exercise either. The
divided skirt is better. The only impera-
tive rule to follow in dressing for the wheel
is to avoid adorning the gown. A woman's
dress for any athletic exercise Is ruined the
